Chapter 315: I have a suggestion
[Task: In California in November, the mountain wind and the sun are like a hair dryer. The flowers and plants on the earth are turtle velvet. Once the hair dryer blows the turtle to the critical point... Boom! The flames that swallow the sky will swallow everything! Get enough fire fighting force and be alert near Orange County!]
[Reward: An Orange County Councilwoman]
Looking at the mission and reward of the smoke of fate that suddenly appeared, Abel couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
If he had changed his place and had such a task, he would probably be confused after reading it. But since this is California, the task is so clear and clear.
If I don't know what's going on.
Then Abel really traveled through time in vain.
Abel quickly understood the meaning of the smoke of fate. It seems that the meaning should be that in November this year, there may be a serious wildfire in California.
Reserve enough firefighting can make Winnie's campaign easier, because the reward for the final task may be the so-called [a female congressman].
This is obvious enough.
After all, California wildfires are really famous in the whole world. Every year, California will experience wildfires with property losses of more than one million US dollars several times.
This year, in June, July and August, three consecutive times occurred. Each time, it caused casualties, the death toll exceeded double digits, and the property losses totaled more than $1 billion.
The number of wildfires occurs more than ten times a year, and the location and reason of the occurrence are also unpredictable. Forbes, a famous newspaper and magazine, published an article that said that California wildfires are caused by man-made (not managing forests).
The specific meaning is that California forests are cash crops. People who were born in the past planted many fast-growing pine trees just to cut down and sell them for money. More than 20 years ago, various policies were introduced to prevent cutting down and forestry was completely destroyed. Since then, economic trees have been left unmanaged.
These pine trees are flammable and not easy to extinguish fires, and strong winds will throw the ignited pine resin everywhere like gasoline bombs. Data shows that there were no forest fires before 2003. After 2003, California forest fires became more and more severe, and large wildfires were more than five times a year.
In addition to this part of possible human factors, there is another reason, which is the special geographical location and climate of California.
Southern California is actually very dry. Except for the rainy season in spring, the grass is yellow and it is almost ready. Ordinary people are not allowed to park on the dead grass when driving to the mountain to play, because it is possible to ignite the dead grass when ignition. In addition, these dead grasses are on the mountain again, making it even more difficult to deal with.
In short, the causes of wildfires in California are artificial factors and the laws of nature. This has led to wildfires in California, just like earthquakes and tsunamis, which are unpredictable.
Where did it happen.
I can only say that there is something unlucky.
However, prevention can actually be prevented, but this aspect involves the rules and details of the firefighting in America that are a bit fucked by the United States.
What I have to say in detail here can be thousands of words, so I won’t say it.
To put it simply.
It is obviously preventable, but due to all disputes and no profit to make money, no one is willing to invest in the prevention of wildfires.
The federal government is unwilling to manage it, and there is not much money to manage it. Because it is often transcontinental, the state government wants to shirk responsibility to the federal government and not manage it. The specific counties and cities do not have the ability to manage it if the fire occurs.
The final result is that no one cares about it, which can only lead to the wildfire turning into a big fire, no matter what happens.
Only then will someone intervene with all their strength.
Abel allowed the smoke of fate to dissipate by himself.
His steps didn't stop.
Follow the little John and move towards the depths of the community.
After walking about a few hundred meters, I turned a path that didn't look very wide and walked for dozens of meters.
The end of the road.
It is a green plant that looks very beautiful, and there is even a gate with some hobbit fantasy flavors in the Lord of the Rings.
Walk into this door.
Walk a few dozen meters more.
The front suddenly became clear.
Presented in front of everyone is a very beautiful and exquisite French ancient Gothic manor castle.
It doesn't look large in size.
But from every corner, there is a rare kind of exquisiteness. There are some people wearing black suits standing at the door. From here, there are also many people inside, which is very lively.
Leading by John the little one, Abel followed behind him and walked into the castle manor.
Along the way, people around us cast curious eyes.
Abel was calm and composed.
Luoluo accepted the gaze of these people generously.
Finally, Abel entered a long conference hall in the manor villa.
This conference hall is very quaint.
He heard Winnie's voice coming from it: "Gusit, do you mean we are strengthening environmental work as the theme of our campaign preparations for this time?"
"That's right! Ms. Adams! Our California has always been the most environmentally friendly in the federal government, and Orange County has invested particularly strongly in this regard!! If we use this aspect as a publicity, we can please this group of voters!!"
"And in this regard, in terms of publicity funds and campaign funds, the pressure on these two aspects will be much less!"
“…”
When he came in, Abel heard that Winnie and her campaign were discussing the main preparations for this Winnie team campaign.
While listening to the other person's words, Winnie's eyes lit up when she saw Abel coming in.
Abel smiled at her.
Under the guidance of little John, he sat in an inconspicuous corner, and listened to everyone's discussion with a smile under the curious gaze of everyone.
Winnie's campaign group is now discussing the campaign theme of their entire team. In the United States, no matter what it is to run for, from a district or street member to a president, a campaign theme will be launched.
Then make various preparations and give speeches around this topic. This topic will often become the main policy for their governance after taking office.
In 2008, Ao Guanhai's campaign slogan was: "Yes, we can do it!!".
Then at that time, Ao Guanhai resonated with the slogan of "change" and unexpectedly successfully defeated the presidential candidate of the Elephant Party, John McCain, and became the first black president in the history of the United States.
His main policy behind him, no matter how it changes secretly or in reality, can only revolve around this topic on the surface.
He has indeed introduced many changes, such as medical insurance reform, gun reform, environmental protection reform, etc.
Although all of them are useless.
It is estimated that it may become one of the top five most ineffective presidents in American history.
I won’t mention the merits and demerits of history for the time being, but at least he made it publicly based on the campaign theme he proposed during his campaign.
You can say that he didn't do well enough.
But at least he did.
And now Winnie's campaign team is also struggling with this aspect.
The people in front of us have proposed that environmental protection is a popular topic in California, and it has become the theme of political correctness.
Another person suggested: "We can also start with the security of Orange County!! 80% of the residents of Orange County are middle-class and above! Among people in this class, the most important thing is public security and the security of their living environment!"
"Medical! Medical care is also very important! Many people are attracted to this place because the medical care in Orange County is strong enough! We can use medical care as the theme to further improve the current..."
"Education cannot be ignored! I have checked the various themes of various campaigns in Orange County since 1956... Among them, the teams with education as the campaign theme have the highest success... However, the theme of environmental protection cannot be ignored. Especially after entering the 21st century, the teams with environmental protection as the campaign theme have very high chances of success!"
"I think it's more important to improve welfare! This is the personal pain! It's also the favorite among voters!"
“…”
Everyone expressed their opinions, and it can be seen that in various other aspects, such as political donations, team staff, publicity and support, public base, etc.
The team that Winnie's father prepared for her has been almost done. The next thing is the most important and core, and it is very likely that the most important thing to decide victory or defeat in every election.
Theme of the election!
Everyone was very serious in their arguments, but they were still harmonious. In the end, they decided to focus on the themes of environmental protection, public security and education.
Winnie's crisp voice rang in the conference room: "Since that's the case, our theme will be focused on environmental protection, public security and education for the time being! Now the rest of the work is to use these three as the themes and take three different campaign slogans!!"
With the theme of the campaign, a campaign slogan is naturally needed. In the campaign, a short, appropriate and catchy campaign slogan will bring unexpected benefits to the campaign work.
As mentioned above, the campaign slogan proposed by Ao Guanhai was: we can!
We can do it!
It is simple, simple and catchy, and it is easy to make people feel: this president is in the same group as us! He said we can do it! Are you still human if you don’t support him?!
"Do you still have any comments?"
Winnie stood up and looked directly at the crowd on the campaign team.
This is the end of today's meeting.
After all, in her mind, in fact, this campaign or the position of a county councillor is not as important as Abel in her mind. When her lover came to Orange County, Winnieco had no intention of continuing to prepare for the campaign.
In fact, Mr. Adams was also helpless at the beginning.
If Mr. Adams hadn't proposed that if Winnie could go to a high position in politics, she would be a good wife for Abel, which moved Winnie. Winnie, who had originally only wanted to start a salted fish, began to embark on the road to politics.
"Agree! Environmental protection is the most respected concept in California, and education and public security are the foundation of the middle class! With these three as the theme, we will definitely be invincible!"
"Agree!"
“Agree!”
“…”
Among the more than 20 people present, almost all of them supported these three themes. After all, whether it is their campaign experience over the years, or the overall scope of California and Orange County, these three themes are basically the most popular among voters and the most popular topics in the polls.
Even the current county government (just read correctly... it is the county government), the main policy of Orange County's governance is based on these three as the theme!
This is more popular.
It is difficult to do a great job, but if you do a great job, you will definitely be the greatest welcome from the voters of Orange County!
Winnie confirmed it again last time.
"It seems that no one should object! Then..."
She was about to decide on the topic this time.
But I saw someone raise his hand.
Chapter completed!
